Abstract
A cutting insert, wherein: a cutting edge part having a quadrangular shaped cutting face, which is provided with a pair of side cutting edges extending in a longitudinal direction of an insert body, and a front cutting edge between ends of the side cutting edges that extends in a direction that intersects the longitudinal direction, is formed at an end of the insert body having a bar-shape; and viewed from a direction facing the cutting face perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction, at least one of a pair of corner edges where the side cutting edge and the front cutting edge intersect is formed in a convex shape such that it has a point of inflection at which, after a tangent line that makes contact with the corner edge rotates in a direction extending in the longitudinal direction along the corner edge from the front cutting edge, its direction of rotation changes, and it joins the side cutting edge.
